YYZ to HKG, newb question

Hey there,

I'm relatively new to Aeroplan, and after much travelling last year I have achieved Prestige status for this year. Currently, I am planning a trip from Toronto to Hong Kong for Dec 17 to Jan 7. I don't care about the agony of multiple stops.

The questions I have are:
  1. What is my cheapest option?
  2. I have 20 eUpgrade credits, should I (and how) be using them for this trip?
  3. I don't plan to travel too much next year due to law school, but should I attempt to keep my status or just spend everything? (and if so, how?)
  4. If I want to maintain my status would it be in my best interest to go with United and take an option with 2-3 stops?

Thanks in advance!
